The The Ray Legacy

Ray Terrill grew up sheltered in near-total darkness, led to believe that exposure to light would kill him — a secret his family kept to hide the extraordinary truth of his heritage. When light finally found him, Ray discovered he could transform into a being of pure radiant energy, inheriting a remarkable legacy he never knew existed.

Reporter Happy Terrill gained extraordinary power over light itself after a freak high-altitude storm bathed him in an unknown form of radiant energy during a balloon ascent, allowing him to transform his body into living light. He took on the identity of The Ray, becoming one of Quality Comics' earliest costumed heroes.
